! This is quite true OF many young men. in

said about selfshness as the primary cause

seltishness. however. for young men would

and happiness of young women with whom
/ they became suitably mated. they would
greatly increase their own happiness. And
as TO the simple matter of expense involved
they would find. as We have already stated
that. in average cases. the wages OF sala-
ries now adequate TO pay their personal ex-
penses, and especially extravagances,
would afford an adequate support for a
sensible and economical young husband and
wife, and that they could, in most cases.
I lay up a little each week for the securing of
a home.
This is not at all a matter of theory or
speculation. What we say has been dem
onstrated 10 be true in hundreds of thou
sands Of instances. Very many young men
whose expenses have exceeded their in-
come, while single. have found, when mar

that they were able to put something, at
stated periods. in the savings bank. and in
that way salt down something for a rainy
day
As a matter of course there are Young
men and young women both, who are sell
fish, foolish. eNtravagant and unfit for mat
rimOny, and it is too often the fact thai
these are the very persons to marry, but
these are exceptional cases, and in some in
stances marriage Sobers people of this sort
down and reforms them. At any rate, on
general principles, and in proper
conditions, men and women ought to
marry. and take the consequences. 1t is
so decreed by Nature and Providence. 1t
is the way of the world. and the flesh, and
of grace, that humanity should follow the
example of Adam and Eve, who, while
they had their trials and trihulations. were
by far happier than if each had de6ed ma
ture and inclination and determined TO go

and women may become happily mated, it
is not simply necessary that ''Barkis"
should be ''willn'" but "Peggotty' must
be willing also. Young men must not be
too t,mid and maidens must not be too par

We most heartily commend the efforts of
of certain excellent ladies in this city to
promote knowledge and skill in the prepa-
ration of food for the table. They could
| hardly engage In work more generally
beneficial to our people. Certainly our
young lady friends would do well to learn
how to cook, by the most approved methods,
both for the sake of their friends and for
their own. for the proper method of cook
ing is a great art as well as an accomplish
! ment- and il is in the interest of good di-
geStion and good health. We are very glad
that Miss Dodge, of Boston. has come here
to give practical instruction in this import
ant branch of feminine education. and we
hope that she will have abundant encour-
agement TO remain uItil she has aroused a

spirit and ambition in the minds and hearts
of our Springfield women, young and old.

The REPUBLICS matrimonial boom has

The REPUBLICS matrimonial boom has
alIeady acquired large proportions. In a
communication from worthy young man,
who is, perhaps, rather slow on the trigge-,
which communication appears in today's
paper, we are asked to frighten off the wild
overs so that the young men can have a
fair chance at the young maidens. and
also to extend the time for operations
thirty days. This done, we are promised
sss marriages in the near future The
widowers will therefore take to the woods
for 90 to 90 days and give the boys an op-
portunity to do their duty.

Bushnelrs almost unparalleled feat was

for the republicans outside Hamilton coun-

for the escape from the forgers and robbers
who switched ballots and stuffed ballot
boxes.
